Australia’s Jason Doyle has plenty of work to do, as he looks to defend his Speedway Grand Prix world title. The Hunter-product finished 12th in the opening event of the series overnight in Poland, making a handful of uncharacteristic mistakes. He was excluded from his first heat after bringing down a rival, then ruled out again in heat 12 for touching the tape. Doyle failed to make the finals, where England’s Tai Woffinden claimed the win. The next round is in the Czech Republic in a fortnight.

A tough weekend for Hunter speedway riders with Mason Campton breaking his wrist during practice in England, while world champion Jason Doyle has been involved in a frightening fall, this time while competing for his club in Poland. The 32-year-old started from gate two and quickly found himself at the back of the pack, before trying a risky move on the inside. Doyle was taken to hospital, but has already been released. He took to social media to say it was ‘just a little slide off’, and that nothing is broken. The Australian is due to start his Speedway GP title defence in Warsaw on May 12.

Just 12 months ago, Jason Doyle suffered what could’ve been a career-ending crash – leaving him with a smashed collarbone, elbow, punctured lung and shattered ribs. But what a difference a year makes. The Newcastle motorbike ace is now a speedway world champion – and the first Aussie to lift the trophy on home soil.

The Hunter’s Jason Doyle has extended his lead in the Speedway World Championship, after finishing on the podium at round nine in Germany. Doyle joined fellow Aussie Chris Holder in the final, but they were outclassed by a Slovenian and a Slovakian. That’s how they stayed, giving Doyle a 10-point advantage in the series with three rounds remaining. The next event is in Sweden in a fortnight.

Hunter rider Jason Doyle remains at the top of the Speedway Grand Prix standings, after the British Grand Prix in Wales. Feeling the pressure, Doyle was too keen to get away – and was slapped with a warning for jumping the start. When proceedings finally began, he couldn’t quite pass his Polish rival. Doyle has a three point buffer in the title race.

Talk about tough. Hunter speedway star Jason Doyle broke his foot last week, and needs crutches to help him walk, but as of now he’s back on top of the world speedway standings. Doyle won three of seven races in Denmark overnight. He finished fourth in the final, but collected enough points along the way to propel himself to the top of the ladder. All that, just five days after surgery to insert three plates and 14 screws into his right foot.

The Hunter’s Jason Doyle has overcome plenty of setbacks to record his second Speedway GP win in the Czech Republic. After scraping into the final, Doyle received a warning for a false start. From the restart, he made a daring move. The 31-year-old held his nerve for the entire race, to claim his first victory of the season. Doyle is now one point behind world championship leader Patryk Dudek – round five takes place in Denmark in two weeks.

Australia’s Jason Doyle has maintained second spot in the Speedway Grand Prix Series, after making his third straight final to start the season. Doyle was in contention on the opening lap. Unfortunately a blocked air filter ended his campaign midway through the decider, and he had to settle for fourth.

Australia’s Jason Doyle has moved into outright second in the Speedway Grand Prix series, following round two in Poland. Doyle had the inside gate for the final in Warsaw and made a great start, but didn’t lead for long. Lindgren from Sweden would hold on to win his second straight final, with Doyle finishing third. The series heads to Latvia for round three in a fortnight.
